sk4g bricked? - T-Mobile Sidekick 4G

hey i tried using the heimdall .. it went thru the whole process.. then when it said rebooting phone ... it disconnect.. it just hangs on the sidekick 4g tmobile screen . and so i thought it failed, so i flashed the bootloader... it went thru the same thing.. now when i goto download mode theres a grey box... and odin cannot detect it ... help!

Reinstall the drivers with the phone plugged in while in download mode. Same thing happened to me

The bootloader drivers?
Sent from my T959 using XDA App

Try these drivers...leave the phone in download mode while installing them . If it asks u to overwrite due to u having them already just say yes....and once it finishes installing...unplug phone and plug back in while in download mode . In order for it to try to read the phone in download mode

What exactly were you trying to put on the phone? You don't need a cpu to flash a rom. Where you trying to flash CWM?

I know that if I can flash cwm through the tool I will be ok but can't get my phone into sw mode or download I will try ur suggestions and get back to you thanks
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
It's power & vol down to get into CWM once you've flashed it. Follow the thread given by Waldano. This must be done before flashing any roms.
Is there a download mode for the g2x or is the volume buttons together the only way? Thanks for all the help guys I will post again a little later with a update

If you have already NVFlashed Clockwork Mod Recovery on the phone, you don't need a PC to flash again.
Download a good rom to a microSD card, throw it in the phone, use Clockwork to flash the zip from SD.
Or if you were smart, you would have performed a Nandroid Backup in Recovery before attempting to flash, in which you can just restore your backup and be back where you were at... which then you could download a different rom so the SD card USING the phone and attempt to reflash.
I messed up huge I flashed through rom manager that's why I can't get into cwm the phone wont do anything all it will do is go to the LG screen and the one with the little android Guy and a folder

[Q] Infuse SGH I997 AT&T brick [HELP!!!!!!!!]

Hello all. I've seen a few similar cases, but I still don't know how to go about it. I bricked my cousin's Infuse 4G when I tried upgrading to 4.2.2 using rootbox rom. Now its stuck at samsung logo. CANT enter recovery or download mode. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Thanks, I followed the guide on this page teamandroid. com/2013/02/17/update-att-samsung-infuse-4g-sgh-i997-android-422-carbonrom-jelly-bean-custom-rom/2/ (can't post links. Yet ) that's how it got bricked. I've been finally able to go into download mode and Odin sees it on my pc but it reboots after 10 seconds or so. any idea about this?
Okay its gonna sound dumb but give your phone some time to charge. Next look in the infuse xda thread and get the heimdall one click back remedy .... For some reason Odin is great but the heimdall is more stable. Go to download mode and just flash back to stock.
Look for qkster thread for the heimdall and instruction.
Good info on getting to 4.2 or three is go to scott.harts thread and read the op for the proper instructions on working up because u have to go to rooted froyo the flash to GB then flash to ICS then finally to the jellybean ... I know there are short cuts but u can end up with headaches I prolly seen them all
PS. Make sure u turn off all antivirus software on PC it can screw up flashing process

Thanks for your replies. I'll try a few options and let you know how it goes. I think it's the battery cus I could turn it on without connecting it to power and it doesn't turn on by itself when I insert the battery. But now I cant turn it on. And the rebooting process stops when I takeout the usb cable
Okay, decided nit to leave this thread hanging (irrelevant I know). I got a fully charged battery and was able to flash desired custom rom to device and now running smooth on 4.2.2 rootbox rom. thanks xda
Cool glad to hear your running.

[Q] Cant enter CWM menu..

My phone can enter cwm just from ROM manager but when i try with hold Power + Volume down + Home botton, it doesnt work..
Need help because i got boot loop, my phone stuck on ROM Logo
Need to know what phone you are running. For the s3 unplug the device hold power+volume up+home. Once it boots let go of the power. You should see blue writing in the top left of the screen. Vol down is for Odin. Hope this helps.

Try fastboot again. Pull out battery to power down, and replace it. Press and hold "home" and "power".

I think your phone may be soft bricked.....but just its my own thinking you may try another procedure also.
